actually it was more what could have been water a very long time ago. not exactly usable drinking water. We could learn how to harness comets and start mining them or we could just like stop screwing around with our water we have here on earth.

uhh Gonzo pretty sure he won't believe that. After all he thinks that Kim (my old neighbor) and myself are lying about the cops in this area, so yeah. Well my experience was with the cops in Cleveland, TN hers was with some small podunk town just over the border in GA. Pretty sure it was close to Fort O but not actually Fort O.

I have known of Jerome for 7 years. I don't expect much though I think we'd be better to find out why it is we really argue from the stance of our shared humanities.

I hope there to be a revival in inward looking in light of all this controversy we are intentionally bamboozled with to divide us once again and restore the shift from violence and hate to routine complacency. Compassion for each other is on my mind tonight, and not for political ends but for humanity's means to an end.

Hypothetical I know but if Hillary - one of the most Universally loathed politicians on the planet - had won, do you suppose we'd be seeing these kind of fascist rallies? I very much doubt it. It's always the left who seem to think they have some divinely ordained hold of the moral high ground and therefore have a clear mandate for this kind of action.

I disagree. I think there would have been protests but maybe not organised as quickly because of where the main Trump support is located. Trump had his supporters convinced that the electoral system was rigged against him, that voter fraud was taking place on a massive scale - a Trump loss would have likely been seen as proof of this and people who feel they've been cheated get very angry.

A key difference being that one of the protests are sanctioned by media

The democrats all over the internets are promoting violent riots. Their excuse is had they won, the other side would have had worse violent riots.

This is the mentality caused by the hearsay lies.

So where were all the racists riots when the black guy was elected? There were none, because the country is not racist. See what I mean, its all a put on to stoke fear and anger to manipulate people into violence.

Anyone? Seems like a reasonable question. Why is it a matter for immediate street protest and/or violence whenever a democratic vote goes against the left - but not the other way around? Wherein lies the asymmetry?

But righties did protest, they created the Tea Party and birther movements. The Birther movement is racist at its core. The Tea Party attacked Obama's policies, the birthers attacked his legitimacy as president.

I even sang some praises tonight about Kasich who of all the young Congressmen who signed on with Newts pledge, has been the most impressive, he actually did step down from Congress, he got past the Obama hate and expanded Medicaid in his state as governor. I still disagree with him on a lot of things, but at least I can respect him.

i'm a bit cross with you borealis, i wanted to see sanders vs trump as the competing bandwagons for the mayor vote and then you had to keep going on about how bernie did/said something politically incorrect, look at the mess you've gotten us into!

Trump won because clinton was a shit candidate, like really shit.

Haha.

Older women did not trust Sanders, and that included me. It wasn't about his shitty college-age rapey article, it was about all his old formative political years. I suspect he'd have thrown women and anyone else under the bus if it helped him get what he wanted, not because he's evil but because he'd think what he wanted was more noble/important and therefore warranted the sacrifice.

He would not likely have won against Trump. He should have used his charismatic moment to build the beginnings of a strong third party - he had the stage and the support, unlike other pathetic American third parties.

I don't think Clinton was all that shitty. She was just painted that way.

Clearly, you are not representative of older women in the US who seemed to like Donald.

Why are we not discussing that hundreds of cities in the U.S. have failing infrastructure that is resulting in the water being poisoned by lead and other dangerous substances?

Kind of a fucking pertinent thing we should maybe be discussing. I like being able to drink clean water.

To be fair Trump did indeed raise the issues of clean water and clean air and made at least some sort of woolly commitment to infrastructure. He would like the EPA to concentrate on these things rather than squandering trillions chasing the vacuous non-issue of carbon dioxide "pollution" and attempting to shut down the US economy while relocating it to any place where they don't give a damn about clean air. Thankfully self-made philanthropic carbon billionaire Al Gore has offered to work together with Trump on climate so we're saved!

It's not true at all that reducing carbon emissions has to be a drag on the economy. In fact, it's the opposite. Costs for power are down in the Northeast due to the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). There are already other tangible benefits you can read about at the links. If you want to keep mumbling the old, false, comforting mantra about wrecking the economy, you won't bother.

I expect you're going to be pretty emotional for some time on these issues and I don't really wish to be the cause of further distress. if you want me to engage I will but otherwise try to be of good cheer and safe in the knowledge that soon the whole of the World will inevitably be moving to this splendid initiative for cheaper energy with lower co2 and never a nuke in sight.

When you can't win on the facts go for the troll.
